Taking Time For You, Wednesday, Second Period

"Hey, guys," Vanessa said, "welcome to Taking Time For You. I'm Vanessa, and I'll be your teacher. Now, there are a lot of reasons you could be stressed. You could be stressed because high school is hard and your parents are awful. You could be stressed because you have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder. You could be stressed because you're planning a wedding--hopefully that's just me. You could be stressed because your country is being run by a useless orange baboon and Houston is currently in the process of becoming New Atlantis. We're not here to judge why you need to step back and take a moment, we're here to learn how to do it. And, you know, to put that into action.

"So, why don't we go around the room, and everyone can introduce themselves, and share what's going on to make them feel they need to step back and take some time for themselves, plus one thing you do to relax, calm down, or take care of yourself. Then the rest of the period is free to do something relaxing."

"Hey, I'm Yang. And, uh, not much tends to stress me out 'cause I'm kinda an adrenaline junkie," she admitted. And it was only mostly a lie, since the one thing that always super-stressed her out was not something she was going to talk about in class. "But to decompress I like to go shopping, or get my hair done, or punch stuff."

You know, like most girls.
